  1. A tasty salad that was a nice change of pace. Enjoyed the orzo and do make sure to not over cook it. The dressing has some zip to it and went well with the sweetness of the vegetables. I cut this recipe down to half and used white and yellow corn and a hothouse cucumber. There were no cherry tomatoes listed in the ingredients so I added what I thought would be tasty in the salad. Thank you Becca13 for posting this recipe. Made and reviewed for Iron Chef recipe tag game in the Game Forum.
